An Irishman Abroad

Sonia O’Sullivan knows a thing or two about preparing properly for a big race. Whether you’re heading to Dublin or not you’ll love her advice on troubleshooting in advance of your big event. We really get into the weeds this week as the clock ticks down to just over a week to go to the big one. We hear Sonia’s number one life hacks for getting ahead of race day problems, how to avoid the post race dip, how to restore the pep in your step and what the elites at Nike do before big races. In the second half of the show over on Patreon we go into greater detail on race day prep with Sonia and top physical therapist Vinny Mulvey. With more than a hundred clients taking part in the race Vinny has been coaching and helping all kinds of runners prepare for the challenge. There’s a great question from a listener, Sonia recommendation of the week and some tips on avoiding electric car stress too!
